are  showing  in  this  booklet  a 
line  of  Dumbwaiters  adapted 
to  different  kinds  of  service, 
each  a  leader  in  its  class,  hav¬ 
ing  the  best  features  of  the  latest  dumb¬ 
waiter  construction. 

In  addition  to  our  regular  list,  we  make 
them  of  special  design,  and  invite  corres¬ 
pondence  where  conditions  are  such  that  a 
stock  outfit  is  not  just  the  kind  required. 

Metal  cars  can  be  substituted  for  hard¬ 
wood  on  any  dumbwaiter;  these,  however 
require  special  quotations. 

For  those  who  are  interested  in  Hand 
Power  and  Electric  Freight  Elevators,  we 
have  other  Descriptive  catalogs  which  we 
shall  be  glad  to  mail  upon  request.

A  PERFECT  RESIDENCE  DUMBWAITER 
Automatic  Lock,  Anti-friction  Roller  Bearings,  Wire  Hoist  Rope 
Adjustable  Guide  Shoes,  Exposed  Weights 

""THE  machine  is  of  the  automatic  type,  which  securely 
1  sustains  the  car  at  any  point  w  ithout  the  use  of  lines 
or  cords.  The  shaft  is  polished  turned  steel,  revolving 
on  roller  bearings,  and  is  mounted  in  an  iron  frame 
containing  the  entire  mechanism,  including  the  wheels 
for  deflecting  the  hoist  rope.  All  parts  are  accurately 
bored  and  carefully  fitted,  resulting  in  a  perfect  ma¬ 
chine. 

The  car  is  well-seasoned  hardwood,  finished  with 
filler  and  varnish,  and  equipped  with  adjustable  guide 
shoes.  The  top  and  bottom  are  gained  into  the  sides 
and  bound  securely  with  bolts. 

A  standard  size  car  is  24"  wide,  20"  deep,  and  3 o"  high,  with  2 
compartments,  14"  and  / 2". 

The  weight  is  in  sections  to  secure  accurate  adjust¬ 
ment;  it  travels  in  open  guides  so  as  to  be  of  easy 
access,  and  is  heavier  than  the  car  to  assist  in  lifting 
the  load. 

The  operating  rope  is  hemp,  free  from  splinters,  and 
the  hoist  rope  is  flexible  steel  cable,  fitted  with  the  neces¬ 
sary  attachments  to  connect  it  to  the  car  and  weight. 

The  guides  consist  of  a  maple  strip  on  one  side,  and 
yellow  pine  runs  on  the  opposite  side,  arranged  to  guide 
both  the  car  and  the  weight.  This  conserves  space  in 
the  shaft,  eliminates  the  expense  of  a  weight  box  and 
insures  free  and  quiet  operation.

Outside  Dumbwaiter  for  Apartments 

Capacity  75  lbs.  Type  A — 152 


'“THIS  type  of  dumbwaiter  is  coming  into 
1  general  use  for  apartments,  where  its 
exclusive  features  appeal  to  both  owner 
and  tenant.  It  requires  no  space  in  the 
interior,  as  the  machine  and  car  are  both 
placed  outside,  and  tradesmen  can  serve 
the  upper  tenants  without  entering  the 
building. 

The  machine,  which  is  self-retaining,  is 
protected  from  weather  exposure  by  a  gal¬ 
vanized  iron  hood  of  neat  design. 

The  car  is  hardwood,  suspended  by  a 
flexible  steel  cable,  and  runs  on  galvanized 
iron  pipes,  one  of  which  contains  the  bal¬ 
ance  weight. 

A  standard  size  car  is  24"  wide,  20"  deep,  and 
40"  high,  with  two  compartments,  14"  and  12".

ENERGY  ELEVATOR  COMPANY 


Little  Giant  Dumbwaiter  or  Trunk  Lift 


Capacity  300  lbs. 


Type  B  1 


'"PHIS  lift  is  constructed  on  the  same  principle  as  the  Energy 
dumbwaiter,  with  the  same  type  of  automatic  brake,  but  is 
double  geared  and  of  heavier  construction,  making  it  suitable 
for  handling  supplies  in  Apartments,  Laundries,  Hotels  and 
Factories.  Its  particular  field  is  to  convey  trunks  to  the  store 
room  of  a  residence,  the  car  being  of  a  size  to  receive  the  largest 
trunk. 

The  machine  is  entirely  contained  in  an  iron  frame,  is  auto¬ 
matic  in  action,  and  securely  sustains  the  car  at  any  point  with¬ 
out  the  use  of  lines  or  cords.  It  has  spur  gearing  cast  from 
machine-cut  patterns,  and  the  shafts  are  turned  steel,  revolving 
on  anti-friction  bearings. 

The  car  is  well-seasoned  hardwood,  with  adjustable  guide 
shoes,  and  is  well  braced  with  irons  and  reinforced  with  angles 
where  necessary  to  make  it  strong  and  rigid.  It  is  enclosed  on 
the  back,  and  on  the  sides  back  of  the  stiles,  with  yellow  pine 
fencing,  18"  high. 

This  car  can  be  made  any  size  up  to  2  ft.  6  in.  wide  by  j  ft.  6  in.  deep  ( outside 
measurements)  and  4  ft.  o  in.  under  the  headbeam. 

The  weight  is  in  cast  iron  sections  on  a  wrought  iron  bar,  and 
is  heavier  than  the  car  to  assist  in  lifting  the  load. 

The  hoist  rope  is  cast  steel  cable,  and  the  operating  rope  is 
hemp,  free  from  splinters. 

The  guide  runs  are  hard  white  maple,  machined  to  fit  the 
guides  on  the  car,  and  bored  and  countersunk  for  screws.

Little  Beauty  Dumbwaiter 


Capacity  25  lbs. 


Type  LA  1 


ADAPTED  for  light,  quick  service,  this  dumbwaiter  is  es¬ 
pecially  suitable  where  ornamental  effects  are  desired,  as  in 
restaurants,  offices,  hotels  or  stores — the  bright,  glistening  brass 
work  and  artistic  design  producing  striking  results. 

The  operating  gear  consists  of  hemp  rope  passing  over  iron 
wheels,  one  at  the  top,  the  other  at  the  bottom.  These  wheels 
are  mounted  in  iron  stands;  they  turn  on  roller  bearings  and 
have  guards  to  prevent  the  rope  from  jumping  off.  A  self¬ 
holding  brake,  which  may  be  applied  or  released  by  one  line  from 
any  floor,  securely  sustains  the  car,  loaded  or  empty,  at  any 
point.  By  means  of  this  brake,  a  load  descends  without  the 
operator  holding  the  car  rope,  the  speed  being  controlled  by  the 
brake  line;  this  prevents  burning  the  hands  and  getting  splinters 
from  the  rope. 

A  hardwood  panelled  cabinet  encloses  the  top  wheel  and 
brake,  and  can  be  finished  to  match  the  surrounding  woodwork, 
or  the  car,  as  preferred.  If  no  finish  is  specified,  both  the  car 
and  top  cabinet  will  be  made  in  golden  oak. 

The  car  is  made  of  highly  finished  hardwood  trays,  spaced 
with  square  brass  tubes,  and  has  reinforced  corners.  It  is  fitted 
with  adjustable  brass  guide  shoes,  polished  brass  rope  connec¬ 
tions,  and,  on  the  bottom,  rubber  bumpers.  If  desired,  the  car 
can  be  made  accessible  from  both  the  front  and  back. 

Two  compartments  is  the  maximum  for  this  dumbwaiter,  more 
than  this  is  likely  to  be  too  heavy,  and  the  counterweight  will 
be  too  long  to  get  full  travel  in  the  tube. 

The  counterweight  is  molded  from  lead  into  a  steel  pipe  that 
fits  inside  the  tube  in  which  it  operates;  it  is  a  little  heavier 
than  the  car.  A  steel  coil  spring  bumper  is  provided  for  this 
weight. 

The  operating  rope  is  ys"  hemp,  fitted  with  the  necessary 
connections  to  attach  it  to  the  car  and  the  weight. 

The  guides  consist  of  two  polished  brass  tubes,  with  flanges 
at  the  top  and  bottom  to  fasten  them  in  position,  and  inter¬ 
mediate  clamps  for  fastening  at  the  floor  line. 

One  of  the  brass  guides  is  equipped  with  a  mouthpiece  and 
whistle  at  each  story,  making  a  perfect  speaking  tube;  these 
can  be  placed  either  on  the  right  or  left  side.

"PHIS  dumbwaiter  has  two  cars  running  on  three 
1  brass  tubes,  with  the  general  construction  the 
same  as  the  single  Little  Beauty  on  page  1 3 .  Speakers 
are  not  used,  as  the  outside  tubes  are  needed  for  the 
balance  weights,  while  the  middle  tube  is  not  the 
right  place  for  them.  If  a  speaker  is  required,  it  is 
customary  to  run  a  special  pipe  in  the  corner  of  the 
hatch. 


T wo  compartments  are  the  maximum  for  this  dumb¬ 
waiter;  more  than  this  is  likely  to  be  too  heavy,  and 
the  counterweight  will  be  too  long  to  get  full  travel 
in  the  tube.

Rapid  Transit  Dumbwaiter 

Capacity  25  lbs.  Type  LA — 2 


1 


""THIS  is  the  quickest  acting  hand  power  dumbwaiter 
1  that  can  be  made.  Since  there  is  no  multiplication 
of  power,  there  is  no  loss  of  speed.  It  is  adapted  for 
loads  not  exceeding  25  lbs.,  and  especially  suited  for 
rapid  work  and  long  runs. 

The  wheels  are  cast  from  metal  patterns  and  revolve 
noiselessly  on  steel  roller  bearings,  which  do  not  require 
any  lubricant.  They  are  mounted  in  iron  stands,  which 
are  securely  guarded  to  prevent  the  rope  from  jumping 
off,  and  can  be  easily  and  quickly  placed  in  position. 

The  car  is  well  seasoned  hardwood,  finished  with  filler 
and  varnish,  and  equipped  with  adjustable  guide  shoes. 
The  top  and  bottom  are  gained  into  the  sides  and  bound 
securely  with  bolts. 

It  is  controlled  by  a  self  holding  brake  that  is  applied 
or  released  by  one  line  from  any  floor,  safely  sus¬ 
taining  the  car,  loaded  or  empty,  at  any  point.  By 
means  of  this  brake,  a  load  descends  without  the 
operator  holding  the  car  rope,  the  speed  being  controlled 
by  the  brake  line. 

This  dumbwaiter  does  not  require  a  weight  box,  the 
weight  being  placed  inside  the  well,  taking  up  no  extra 
room.  It  is  always  accessible  for  adjustment  and  runs 
smoothly  between  guides,  thus  avoiding  the  necessity 
and  expense  of  double  lining  the  shaft  from  top  to 
bottom.

Basement  Lift 


Capacity  300  lbs. 


Type  D—  46 


yHIS  is  a  general  utility  lift  for 
1  service  between  the  basement  and 
the  first  floor. 

The  illustration  shows  it  arranged 
to  carry  logs  to  an  open  hearth,  and 
the  cabinet  into  which  it  rises  may 
be  used  as  a  seat  or  table.  Its  uses 
embrace  the  removing  of  ashes, 
carrying  coal  and  wood  to  the  upper 
floor,  and  similar  light  freight  serv¬ 
ice.  Many  confectioners  find  it 
ideal  for  lifting  ice  cream  churns, 
and  we  believe  it  is  one  of  the  most 
efficient  lifts  made  for  that  purpose. 

The  machine  is  self  retaining  and 
will  automatically  hold  anywhere 
under  a  load. 

The  car  may  be  open  on  either  the 
top  or  front,  as  preferred,  or  it  can 
be  made  in  flat  platform  shape  where 
that  would  be  better  adapted  to  the 
work  required.

Electric  Dumbwaiter 


Capacity  100-400  lbs.  Type  H  1

Page  eig 


"^pHlS  dumbwaiter,  without  a  counter¬ 
weight,  has  a  capacity  of  100  lbs.  with 
a  1  o  h.p.  motor,  and  200  lbs.  with  a  1  h.p. 
motor,  both  at  a  speed  of  40  feet  a  minute. 
When  counterbalanced  it  has  a  capacity  of 
400  lbs.  at  25  feet  a  minute,  and  can  be 
used  as  a  house  lift  for  trunks  and  light 
passenger  service.  It  is  connected  direct 
to  the  motor  by  a  steel  chain  belt,  which 
insures  a  positive  drive  without  slipping. 

The  machine  has  worm  and  worm  wheel 
cut  from  solid  blanks,  and  to  run  in  oil 
protect  them  from  dust,  and  insure  the 
perfect  lubrication  of  the  vital  parts.  It  is 
further  equipped  with  phosphor  bronze 
bearings  and  ball  thrusts  on  both  ends. 

The  automatic  band  brake  will  easily  sustain  a  full  load;  it  is 
quick  in  action,  operates  without  jar  or  vibration,  and  so 
arranged  that  it  automatically  takes  up  the  wear. 

The  automatic  stop  placed  on  the  drum  shaft  stops  the  car 
at  the  top  and  bottom  floors.  It  is  always  reliable  and  acts  on 
the  shifting  cable  independently  of  the  operator. 

The  winding  drum  is  machine-grooved  to  secure  a  smooth  sur¬ 
face  for  the  cables,  and  thereby  lengthen  their  time  of  service. 

The  car  is  hardwood,  iron  reinforced,  with  adjustable  guide 
shoes  and  a  sure  grip  safety  device.  It  can  be  made  either  plat¬ 
form  or  cabinet  style,  as  desired. 

A  standard  size  car  is  36"  wide,  24"  deep,  36"  high;  and  has  two  compartments, 
id"  x  ;6". 

The  controller  cable,  passing  from  top  to  bottom  inside  the 
hatchway,  starts  and  stops  the  dumbwaiter  from  any  floor,  by 
a  short  pull  of  a  few  inches. 

The  hoist  cable  has  a  test  strength  of  ten  times  the  rated  capa¬ 
city  of  the  dumbwaiter. 

The  guide  runs  are  hard  white  maple,  machined  to  fit  the 
guides  on  the  car. 

The  motor  is  the  reversible  type,  especially  made  for  dumb¬ 
waiter  service. 

The  drum  reverse  switch  shuts  off  the  motor  at  the  top  and 
bottom  stops. 

The  steel  chain  belt  is  the  high-grade  quiet  kind  that  never 
slips,  and  will  last  a  life  time.
